Apartments Above Shops

The Village is the largest commercial centre, with the main concentration of shops and restaurants. It also has the advantage of sitting at the confluence of both Whistler and Blackcomb mountains, so that you can choose to ski either mountain from a single starting point: Skier's Plaza. If you want to be able to stagger back from one of Whistler's legendary nightclubs on foot and fall into your bed, the Village is the place to be. However, with a few exceptions, the Village tends to offer smaller and rather undistinguished accommodation: primarily one- and two-bedroom apartments above the shops. They were cheaply-built, and unless you find one which has been recently refurbished, you may find yourself in a convenient but rather unattractive lodging. In addition, you may find that although you are in the Village you are quite a long walk from the lifts, since the Village is quite long and narrow and the far end of it is a good 10 minutes walk from Skier's Plaza. Finally the Village is not for those looking for a peaceful time: Whistler attracts a rowdy crowd and they like to party until the early hours.
